new trails

[jorgilbe]

any new trails since last summer ?

[JB800]

They have been building some, Sir-C-gar might be able to fill us in on where some of them are.......

[porkchop]

they are still onmarked But some have been built and there is some new ones marked also. Guess just come on down and we will point you in the right direction

[jorgilbe]

plan on being  there march 9-12 already have trails end booked

[Sir C-gar]

New trails? Ask and ya shall recieve!  Got umpteen orange wooden directional arrows up...and I've lost count of how many rolls of that thar survey tape have been used to mark trails.  Ditto on the dulled chainsaw blades!  

The main labor of love starts on trail 49 just past where the clear cut begins...and ends at the 1st large mud puddle on trail 5.  Has a little bit of everything.  Ups..downs..Pyramid Rock, cliffs/overhangs etc. and one dandy rocky technical hill climb section.  I always try to leave'em tight and narrow when possible..and hope everyone enjoys this one for years to come.

About 3/4 way through this trail there is a fork.  Taking the right "fork" will lead you into what Stakk says is a place that looks like an area where Bigfoot could live!      It's VERY remote...seculded...and absolutely one of the most tranquil places I've found at Brimstone.  Towards the end of this "fork" (Not sure if it will be a seperate trail or just a "a" or "b" of the main one) there is a peninsula created by creek that splits into 2 sections flowing on both sides.   TALK about a place to CAMP!!!  You can pull you ride onto the peninsula...pitch your tents...listen to the creeks on either side...and as Stakk says...keep an eye out for BIGFOOT!!     This trail meanders through some tight hemlock for just a short ways more and ends up on a wildcat trail that is just a short piece from the bottom of the 1st creek on 49. 
Whew!  Will be easier to show...than to tell...that's for sure!  LOL

Is there a new map out since the one came out last spring?

No new map this year, but they can show you where the new trails are if you check in the office.

[Sir C-gar]

Took several groups on rides last Thursday and Friday that covered the latest choppin-hackin-sweatin-fussin..uh...er...TRAIL building ol P-anerman did last fall and this spring...and was very pleased to see that the trails are starting to show welcomed signs of usage!  I put some new ribbons up..a few new orange arrows etc...and with the help of Rowland and crew, moved a few trees and made some improvments on the "Stakks Bigfoot Camp Trail" section/spur portion. 

Dusty the hillclimp you liked just after the Pyamid Rock is getting gooder..and gooder...as is the wooded section that Camo2 was burning up doing laps the day that Chief was having boo-boo problems with tires on the last ride

[JB800]

I'm ready to try them again this time i'll have the GoPro charged up to video the whole thing this time I know Dusty is ready to try it again, flip flop drove it last time while she was in the passenger seat

[Sir C-gar]

Sounds like a plan!   I did try one thing new...I ran it backwards...or at least what to me was backwards..and geeeeesh!   That last section with the rock boulders was a boooooger to climb!  Granted it was a whitttttttle bit wet...but that only added to the fun factor! That one spot you have to get so close to the moss covered "Penny Rock"...that I always manage to reach out and pat it for good luck!

Oh..."Penny Rock"  Seems somebody...not going to mention any names...has started a tradition of tossing pennies out onto that old moss covered boulder.  I know I've seen it done from chair lifts onto rocks below...and other sites....now it seems that Brimstone will have a copper covered landmark in years to come! 

[dusty banjo]

Sir C-gar, if it was a booger to climb backwards I will be on it like a tick on a dog! You know I like the challenge.  I will have to make sure Flip-Flop is in the passengers seat this time!

I can't wait to get back down there to ride again and see the up and coming copper covered land mark again.

Has the trail that kinda resembles Camo's Trail (with the big Hemlocks) have a name or number yet?
